I still believe — despite no evidence — that the Astros had decoded the Nats signs. And that after getting rocked, the Nats switched up without HOU realizing. Bats were garbage in G6/7.
The Altuve K in G6 was the swing of someone who knew but didn’t know what was coming.

worth a mention Stephen Strasburg had to change his entire approach in Game 6 of the 2019 World Series because he was "tipping his own pitches" (as it was thought at the time) in the 1st inning, changed how he held the glove and the Astros never hit him again

He leaves the game with the highest batting average, on base percentage, slugging percentage and OPS in World Series history.
